Clement Bryant

Clement Bryant, a native of Washington, DC, began his career at an early age-kindergarten, to be precise. Since that time, there have been a multitude of admirers and followers of his artistic style as exhibited in the areas of fine art and graphic design.Part of the onlookers’ amazement may be attributed to Clement’s origins in an environment less than conducive towards nurturing and artistic talent. Ironically, his talent continued to thrive amidst often chaotic early experiences that ran the gamut from rough to refined. At the age of nine, his principal submitted his artwork to a Washington, DC art contest for the “Young and Gifted” sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution. Over 2,500 youngsters competed, but only Clement and five others were awarded the opportunity to study and learn about the great masters.​Bryant won national merit as an artist in high school, which led to a full scholarship to the Rochester Institute of Technology. He earned his Bachelor of Fine and Applied Arts Degree in Environmental/Industrial Design. Since then, Clement has concentrated his career as a graphics/multi-media designer.Clement has come to realize that his passion and commitment to fine art cannot be denied. Having a great appreciation for the graphics/visual media, his center, and his purpose is the fine arts.
